Casole d'Elsa · Tuscany · Italy

An estate among the hills of Casole d'Elsa

Once farmland and hunting grounds, San Giovanni has been returned to life as a vineyard tended by hand, shaped by generations. Its restored houses welcome guests beside Belmond Castello di Casole.

The Estate

Three houses and 135 private acres

San Giovanni is a living estate. Its soils of clay, limestone, sand, and granite shape wines that reflect the character of Tuscany, and its groves press the estate's own olive oil. At the center sit the main house, the annex, and a guest house remade from the old tasting room, and during your stay the heated pool, the bocce court, and the grounds are shared with no one but your party.

The villa is cared for by the concierge team at Casali di Casole, a Timbers Resorts property. Housekeeping, private chefs, groceries, drivers, and reservations are all handled by one bilingual team.

Mattucci · The Estate Wine

Dedicated to Bruno Mattucci, who left Italy for America in 1902 with little more than his name, his heritage, and the courage to begin again. More than a century later, the name has returned to Tuscany.

La terra. La famiglia. Il vino. Per sempre.
